I HAVE A 2013 DODGE DART. AFTER 2 YEARS, THE CLUTCH SUDDENLY STUCK TO THE FLOOR, THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE; IT NEEDED A NEW MASTER CYLINDER. A FEW MONTHS LATER, I STARTED NOTICING IT STICKING AGAIN, BUT IT COULD BE PULLED OUT BY USING MY FOOT TO POP IT BACK OUT. SO I PROMPTLY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. LAST MONTH, THE CLUTCH WENT OUT AGAIN. HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. NOW IT SEEMS THEY ARE REPLACING THE ENTIRE CLUTCH KIT. TOLD ME THE FLYWHEEL WAS COMPLETELY BURNED OUT. AND TRIED TO BLAME MY DRIVING, SAYING THE FLYWHEEL WAS NORMAL WHEN THEY EVALUATED IT. NO WAY, DODGE. NOW THEY'VE HAD MY CAR SINCE NOVEMBER 16TH, TODAY BEING DEC. 3, AND IT STILL WON'T BE FIXED UNTIL WELL INTO NEXT WEEK. AND THE RENTAL CAR IS OUT OF MY POCKET.

I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED AT ALL ON MY RECALLS. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL THINGS I'VE CALLED MY DEALERSHIP ON AND I THOUGHT IT HAD BEEN FIXED NOT KNOWING IT WAS A RECALL. BUT IT IS NOT FIXED. MY TRANSMISSION WON'T LET ME PUT CAR IN REVERSE VERY EASY. MY CAR ENGINE RPMS GET HIGHER WHEN I APPROACH TO STOP. IT ACTS LIKE IT'S NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL ST TIMES LIKE IT CUTS OUT. MY BLUETOOTH IS HARD TO CONNECT. MY FRONT DRIVER TIRE HAS WORE OUT 2 SIDE WALLS TIRES BUT HAS NEVER WENT FLAT BUT NEVER SHOWS IT'S VERY LOW BUT IT IS NEVER THE SAME AS OTHERS. MY CAR FRONT DRIVER MAKES A NOISE LIKE SUSPENSION IS MESSED UP AND IT'S VERY ROUGH RIDING. I NO LONGER GET GOOD GAS MILEAGE. WHEN I GO TO PARK MY CAR IT WANTS TO ROLL AFT ERR BEING PUT IN...

MY CAR WAS PURCHASED 4/2013. AFTER THREE MONTHS A NEW SLAVE CYLINDER WAS INSTALLED AFTER THE COMPUTER READ NO GEARS, SERVICE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAS HAPPENED AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES IN THE TWO YEARS THAT I HAVE HAD THE CAR. EVERY THE I TURN THE CAR OFF AFTER THIS HAPPENS, THE COMPUTER RESETS, SO WHEN IT GETS TO THE DEALER, THE CLAIM THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS WAS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY, NOW ITS EVERY DAY. I CAN'T DRIVE THE CAR TO WORK FOR FEAR THAT IT WILL GIVE OUT. THE LAST FEW TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED, THE CAR WOULDN'T START BACK UP. I HAD TO SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART. THIS IS A HAZARD. THE CAR HAS NO GEARS WHILE I'M ON THE HIGHWAY YRAVELIN AT 80 MPH. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR ME OR FOR OTHERS ON THE HIGHWAY.

ONGOING CLUTCH/HYDRAULIC PROBLEMS HAVE CAUSED ME TO BE IN SEVERAL UNSAFE SITUATIONS. FIRST SAFETY CONCERN WAS DUE TO CAR STALLING WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP. THERE WERE SEVERAL TIMES THAT IMPROPER CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT CAUSED THE CAR TO JERK AND DIE AT A STOP. SECOND CONCERN WAS FROM DIFFICULTY SHIFTING GEARS IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC DUE TO CLUTCH NOT ENGAGING FULLY. THIRD CONCERN WAS FROM TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE (19426 MILES): EXITED INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND DEPRESSED CLUTCH TO SHIFT TO NEUTRAL. WHILE DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH I HEARD A LOUD POP/CLUNK SOUND AND THE CLUTCH INSTANTLY DROPPED TO THE FLOOR. I THEN STARTED SMELLING THE CLUTCH BURNING AND HAD NO ABILITY TO SHIFT OR ENGAGE GEARS. I WAS LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROADWAY AND HAD TO PUSH MY VEHICLE TO A SAFE LOCATION ON THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD THANKS TO THE HELP OF SOME PEOPLE THAT STOPPED....

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE CAR STARTED STUTTERING AND MAKING A WHOOSHING/WHISTLING SOUND. KEEP LOOSING POWER TO THE CAR. WHEN I WOULD TRY TO SPEED UP, IT WOULD MAKE IT WORSE, AND WOULD MAKE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT START BLINKING. I RAN THE CODE, THAT CAME BACK AS CODE P1ECA. I BELIEVE THIS IS PART OF THE POWER TRAIN RECALL, THOUGH MY CAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST, I BELIEVE IT NEEDS TO BE. THIS PROBLEM CAME OUT OF NOWHERE WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE, AND EVERYTHING I HAVE TRIED TO FIX IT HAS NOT WORKED.

THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING-INTERMITTENT PROBLEM/ISSUE. THE HYDRAULIC CLUTCH SYSTEM (MANUAL TRANS) WILL LOSE PRESSURE WHICH MEANS THAT THE CLUTCH PEDAL WILL GO TO THE FLOOR AND I CAN'T SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION. AT TIMES IT IS ONLY DOING THIS FIRST THING IN THE MORNING BUT WILL GET PRESSURE AFTER "PUMPING IT UP" A FEW TIMES. IT WILL LOSE PRESSURE AFTER DRIVING FOR A PERIOD OF 15-20 MINUTES MEANING THAT WHEN COMING TO A STOP I AM UNABLE TO DOWNSHIFT. ONCE STOPPED, WHEN IT HAS LOST PRESSURE, IF YOU LEAVE THE TRANSMISSION IN FIRST GEAR, OR REVERSE, IT WILL MOVE WHEN THE IGNITION KEY IS PUT INTO THE START MODE WHEN THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS FULLY DEPRESSED! THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY FLUID LEAKS OR SIGNS THAT THE LEVEL HAS GONE DOWN. I HAVE SEEN ON A DODGE DART OWNERS WEBSITE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD AS...

WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, THE CLUTCH PEDAL WILL GET STUCK DOWN AND NOT ENGAGE INTERMITTENTLY. THE CLUTCH PEDAL DROPS TO THE FLOOR WHEN DEPRESSED AND NOT RETURNING WITHOUT PUMPING THE PEDAL PRIOR TO STARTING THE ENGINE. THIS IS BECOMING COMMON AFTER THE CAR IS NOT IN OPERATION OVERNIGHT

IT HAD RAINED AND I WAS MANEUVERING MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION 2013 DODGE DART OUT OF A TIGHT SPOT, WHEN PLACING IN REVERSE AND BREAKING TO CHANGE TO FORWARD, THE ENGINE SHOOK AND FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT. I REVVED THE ENGINE TO KEEP IT FROM STALLING. THERE IS VIBRATION THAT YOU CAN FEEL WHEN SITTING AT A LIGHT, POSSIBLY A ROUGH IDLE. U-CONNECT IS NOT WORKING. WHEN MORE THAN ONE THING IS ON, SUCH AS RADIO OR AC, AND YOU GO TO OPEN WINDOW, YOU CAN FEEL A POWER DRAIN. I AM NOT SURE IF ALL THESE THING HAVE TO DO WITH ELECTRICAL, POWER-TRAIN OR BOTH.
